my little em was considerate!

we're slowly seeing some progress with em and today at lunchtime, she was considerate! which of course we oohed and ahhed about. it was time for lunch and there was only enough leftover sloppy joes for one person. she walked into the office and asked dad if he wanted any sloppy joes! she didn't say dad i want sloppy joes, so there's not enough for you. or even please don't eat any sloppy joes because i want it. she actually just very nicely asked him if he wanted some! he said no thanks and she said okay, well there's only enough for one, so i guess i can have it. (i wasn't eating then). i said em! that was so considerate of you to put others first! i'm so proud of you! mr's becoming very considerate, and now em seems to be getting it slowly too. she's starting to say thank you on her own now too. yay, love seeing progress!

Those little moments are what carry us through this crazy ride, aren't they? Gotta love 'em!

Wonderful news! That's a huge step forward since usually it's all about them. Congrats Em!
